Top 10 Shows to Brighten your Mood

1. The Good Place: A philosophical comedy about what happens after death—with moral dilemmas, hilarious characters, and real emotional depth. It’s existential, but in a hopeful way.

​

2. Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt: A colorful, chaotic comedy about reclaiming joy and identity after trauma. Endlessly weird, often absurd, but sneakily empowering and smart.

​

3. Schitt’s Creek

A formerly rich family is forced to move to a tiny town they once bought as a joke—then slowly (and hilariously) becomes a found family. Pure comfort with actual character growth.

​

4. Ted Lasso

An American football coach leads a British soccer team—with zero experience but endless optimism. It's the most heart-healing, kind, and affirming show you'll ever watch.

​

Small-town government never looked this fun. Leslie Knope’s ambition and optimism are contagious, and the characters are so quirky you’ll want to live in Pawnee.

 

6. Brooklyn Nine-Nine

Fast-paced comedy set in a police precinct. It blends hilarious absurdity with sincere friendships and surprisingly progressive storylines.

 

7. Kim’s Convenience
